Freedom from Pain

The last week has been a rough one here in JeninCanada-Land, thanks to my pesky gallbladder. Last Thursday night it started acting up and it didn’t really stop until I got the darn thing out on Monday. Thursday night, Friday night (is 3:30am night or morning?), Saturday afternoon and evening (until I went down to […]

Aerobic Exercise Burns Fat All on Its Own (even if you don’t lose weight)

Trigger warning: This post is about the belief that exercise is for weight loss. This article is another of those “No shit, Sherlock” moments: In obese teenage girls, bwoth aerobic exercise and resistance training were effective at reducing total fat — even if the girls didn’t cut calories or lose weight, researchers found. WTF is […]

Incredible Edible Hate —

Trigger warning: This post is about the violent lengths to which some haters go. About 20 years ago, when I was a kid, my mom went for one of her regular runs through our neighborhood when a car full of teenagers screamed “DYKE!” as they passed. I remember her agonizing over the experience, wondering if […]

The Fat Girl and the Cloak of Invisibility

Over the last couple of months, I’ve realized that I really am my own toughest critic. My first novel was published in July, but even the accomplishment of a lifelong dream has come with bouts and rounds of fear and anxiety. Every positive review comes with an excuse that diminishes it. Every less-than-great review sinks […]
